Abstract
Grounded Theory Methods (GTM) are a set of practices for exploring a new domain, or a domain without an organizing theory. The practices are strongly grounded in the data and the theory is said to emerge from the data. These practices provide intellectual rigor for organizing an inquiry. Most GTM inquiries in human-computer interaction (HCI) and computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW) are based on qualitative data, but the same rigor can be applied to exploratory studies that use quantitative data, or a combination of qualitative and quantitative data.
